Session Proposal: The MacGyver Session: The Place for Novel, Exciting, Self-Made, Hacked, or Improved Sensors and Software Solutions to Understand Ocean Environments (AGU25)

OS027
The MacGyver Session: The Place for Novel, Exciting, Self-Made, Hacked, or Improved Sensors and Software Solutions to Understand Ocean Environments

Session ID#: 250117

Session Description:
This 17th edition of the MacGyver session leads science into the future with contributions from across AGU sections! All are welcome to present and bring hands-on demonstrations to make this the most exciting set of poster-only sessions of the AGU Fall Meeting, featuring:  New sensor systems or uses of technology in novel or unintended ways. New data storage or transmission solutions (e.g., LoRa, WIFI, or GSM). Novel 3D printed designs and other fabrication techniques that transform measurement capabilities. Community initiatives facilitating the creation and sharing of novel sensors, data-acquisition, and data-transmission technologies.This session will share Ocean Sciences Section innovations with the broader AGU community.  If you are interested in developing sensing methods, integrating sensors, fabricating new instruments, or novel ways of collecting, transmitting, sharing and using data, then this session is for you! Any and all new methods, tools, or approaches are welcome.
